Update 1.4.1 released
by Thomas Bruederli 22 Nov '19

22 Nov '19

Dear subscribers Short time after the release of the stable version 1.4.0 of Roundcube Webmail we already publish the first service release. With the recent release we missed to mention a few breaking changes since the last stable version 1.3. We apologize for this and are now clarifying and correcting these: Breaking changes ---------------- (since 1.3.x) * new defaults for smtp_* config options: Upon many requests and in order to get closer to the default setup of most SMTP servers, we changed the defaults as follows: // SMTP port (default is 587) $config[‘smtp_port’] = 587; // SMTP username (if required). %u will use the current username for login $config[‘smtp_user’] = ‘%u’; // SMTP password (if required). %p will use the current user’s password for login $config[‘smtp_pass’] = ‘%p’; * changed default password_charset to UTF-8: Because of many complaints, we decided to choose a more sane default that covers most setups and configurations. * login page returning 401 Unauthorized status: The new behavior that Roundcube 1.4 returns a 401 status code if the client is not authenticated apparently was very unexpected and lead to monitoring problems. Despite not having mentioned that change in the release notes, we now partly reverted it so that 401 is only returned on login failures but not on the first request to Roundcube which by definition is unauthorized. Besides these three major concerns we heard from your much appreciated feedback, we fixed a number of nasty bugs that sneaked into the 1.4.0 release. See the full changelog in the release notes on the Github download page [1]. This release is considered stable and we recommend to update all productive installations of Roundcube with this version. Download it from roundcube.net [2]. Please do backup your data before updating. We'd also like to thank Phil for his steady efforts to keep our website up-to-date. Your work is much appreciated! Best, Thomas & Alec [1] https://github.com/roundcube/roundcubemail/releases/tag/1.4.1 [2] https://roundcube.net/download

Roundcube Webmail 1.4.0 - Elastic released
by Thomas Bruederli 09 Nov '19

09 Nov '19

Dear subscribers It's a big honor for me to announce the final release of the long awaited major version 1.4 of Roundcube webmail. After more than two years of hard work by Alec and other volunteer contributors, Roundcube finally gets the responsive skin with full mobile device support - the Elastic. In addition to the new UI we introduce these new features: * Email Resent (Bounce) feature * Improved [Mailvelope](https://www.mailvelope.com) integration * Support for Redis and Memcached cache * Support for SMTPUTF8 and GSSAPI Plus numerous improvements and bug fixes collected from your precious feedback as well as updates to recent versions of 3rd party libraries like jQuery and TinyMCE. See the full changelog in the release notes on the Github download page [1]. The new Elastic theme, which is the new default skin, is built with LESS and of course the sources are included. They allow a certain degree of customization by adjusting some colors and variables using the `_styles.less` and `_variables.less` files. Please consider customizing your Roundcube installation in order to make phishing [2] harder. You'll find guidance in the README.md file inside the skin folder. This release is considered stable and we encourage you to update your productive installations after carefully testing the upgrade scenario and preparing your users to the significant changes in their webmail UI. Download it from https://roundcube.net/download. With the release of Roundcube 1.4.0, the previous stable release branches 1.3.x and 1.2.x will change into LTS low maintenance mode which means they will only receive important security updates but no longer any regular improvement updates. The 1.1.x series is no longer supported and maintained. Kind regards, Thomas [1] https://github.com/roundcube/roundcubemail/releases/tag/1.4.0 [2] https://roundcube.net/news/2019/10/28/phishing-alert
